Here is Stacy's latest shot. Take a look at her before and after shots This week Heather asked me to keep track of my food intake. I have not tracked my eating habits for about four weeks. Since I have lost a few pounds my calorie intake has decreased from 1521 calories a day to 1496 calories a day. I knew this would happen once I started losing weight; to continue losing I would have to decrease my calorie intake. I thought it would be much fewer calories than 1496, I can still live with this.
Of course the week she ask me to count calories was not a routine week for me. We left town on Thursday and I did not have control of my schedule like I usually do. We were traveling with our kids. This was hard for me because I do not normally eat at fast food places or much of the junk kids love to eat.
I did plan the menu for when we got to where we were going and I made a huge salad and had lots of fresh fruit on hand for when I wanted to snack on something. This helped with the temptation that could come from the potato chips and cookies I packed for the kids. Most of the time I did well.
What was really good was as soon as I got home I went for a run. It is good to relax and take time off.
